I'm going to Seoul, Korea!

It will be a short trip. Your advice is appreciated.

Before I continue with my Wulai posts, I wanna announce, that I'm going to Seoul for few days next week. I've always been fascinated with South Korea and I've blogged about it here a lot. I've written some general Korea related posts about the culture, pop music, beauties and especially about Lee Hyo-ri, my favorite Korean singer. Last year I was totally into Korea, even contemplated to find a way to work and stay there and also wanted to learn the language. I even had a good Korean friend, who came to Slovenia last year with a couple of his friends and I showed them around Maribor and Ljubljana. I really had a great time with them, learned a lot about their country and people. But few months later, he suddenly turned away from me for reasons he didn't share with me. He deleted me from FB, Twitter, MSN, everywhere and never really told me why. 2 years of online friendship ended just like that. It's true, when I met my Taiwanese girlfriend last year, all my attention was diverted to her and Taiwan and I had less time for him. My idea of going to Korea and learning Korean slowly faded away. But do you blame me, if I have followed my heart? I don't.

With that said, I always wanted to go to Korea and at least visit Seoul, the bustling mega city on the banks of river Han. I may not meet my friend and just walk around myself, but that's ok. I'll find my way like I did in Macau. Of course Seoul is something completely else, it's like 20 times bigger than Macau, but I'm sure the transportation system is way better than there and I hope young Koreans will be kind enough to help me find my way, in case I get lost. I also hope I can get the new Hyori's album H-Logic, which is set to be released on April 12th. How cool is that? :-)
Below is Hyori's new video: Swing (그네)

Have you ever been to Korea before? Any tips and advice?

Will I see Hyori? ^_^ http://twitter.com/simonkimkr zephyrus irish
